The ESP Guitar Company

You might be surprised to find out that many times, when someone wins a giveaway guitar in an ESP sweepstakes, we never hear from them again. If we're lucky, we might get a few pics of the winner with their prize guitar, and a thank you message (which, don't get us wrong, is cool).

But Tristen Traynor of Rio Linda, CA, who won an LTD James Hetfield Snakebyte Camo that was given away at the Aftershock Festival earlier this month, now takes the prize as "Best ESP Winner Ever" after sending us this TikTok video he made after receiving his new guitar. When you have the entire ESP marketing team singing, "Bud Light... pickup truck!" in a meeting, you know you've done well. We highly encourage any future winners of our sweepstakes and giveaways to do what Tristen did and let us see what you're doing with the prize you've won!
